Travis J. T. October 4, 2024

Knowledgeable and Very Professional! Jeffrey was a referral from my company lawyer who wasn't able to take on my case due to short notice. I couldn't be happier with how Jeffrey handled my case with such professionalism and down to earth feel. As if stress from needing a lawyer isn't enough, Jeffrey did an amazing job not making me worry and that he had it handled. Really appreciate you! Take care...

Jeffrey Silence provided me thorough guidance with the upmost detail of care. Jeffrey has a clear, outlined process for his services that adds tremendous value. Jeffrey “wrote” me a letter in real time using voice to text dictation. I was impressed with Jeffrey’s ability to accurately summarize an extensive phone conversation and concisely apply the law to my situation. Above and beyond, I felt that Jeffrey really led with the goals that I wished to accomplish so this was a highly tailored, non-cookie cutter experience. I would personally recommend Jeffrey to any of my friends or family for not only his experience and knowledge, but his display of warmth and empathy for what I was walking through. Great attorneys that are also great people are gems to find!
